George Smith ( former City player)

Re: George Smith ( former City player)

Wouldn't it be great for high quality, colour recordings of this era? I was probably on the Grange End as a 16 year old watching this game with some of my all time favourites on the pitch.

Thanks TOBW for sharing the video, TIB

It may not be high quality but there is this colour recording of our match v Sunderland played a couple of months after that Middlesbrough game.

Thanks for the replies, guys. Can just about remember him, but he really doesnt stand out for me, unlike many others from that era.

A long career in the game according to Wikipedia- I recall him being uninspiring and generally poor for City.

I remember him playing when I first started going with my father in the early 70's. Pretty sure I actually saw him score but it must have been a rare goal. The side at that time were struggling to avoid relegation and relied on the likes of Gil Reece and Johnny Vincent to score the goals. Think Andy McCulloch was around that time but it may have been later. Such a long time ago now
